RKYHS seniors have been participating in Senior Sessions as they close out their senior year. Senior Sessions are a participatory, educational experience for the 12th graders that prepare them for their next chapters post graduation.

The engaging presentations have ranged from Lena Koropey of Gramercy Protocol who spoke about business and social etiquette and networking skills to Rabbi Gideon Black, former Jewish Life on Campus Rabbi from NYU who led a panel of college students speaking about challenges and opportunities for Jewish students on college campuses. Later in the week they heard from David Orbach of Regal Bank (and JKHA/RKYHS parent) about personal finance including bank accounts, budgeting, credit history and protecting your identity and Carol Jacobson, early engagement director of AIPAC, who discussed transitioning from high school to college activism. The remaining sessions the following week will cover vaping awareness and domestic violence awareness and prevention on college campuses. These programs of Senior Sessions round out the opportunities that RKYHS has provided them throughout their time at school to be engaged and informed individuals.
